As I sit here watching more snow fall (and remembering that, last week, the Groundhog said we’d have an early Spring!), it would just be SO lovely to have this view right now! Epcot’s annual Flower and Garden Festival begins in just 3 weeks, and I have to say, there is NO better way to welcome in Spring!

We visited the 20th annual Food & Wine Festival this past week. Going toward the end seemed to be a great time to go; the weather was perfect and the crowds appeared to be down with the exception of 1 night. It has been several years since we last visited and we were very impressed this year with the quality of food. While some of the food was not to everyone’s taste, it all was very good and a nice helping so it could be split 4-ways. Read more

Many thanks to our agent and writer Elizabeth for the photo!

At Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party, Guests have a chance to see a number of shows, events, and even some “friends” that they normally don’t have a chance to see. A number of Disney villains make appearances, and of course many strange folks show up during the “Boo to You” parade, including the famous Headless Horseman. And if you stop by the Haunted Mansion, you may even see this lovely lady, who could possibly be waiting to find her next husband!

When choosing a favorite time of year to visit Walt Disney World, one event to consider is the Food & Wine Festival that runs from late September to mid November. This is my all-time favorite time to go for an all adult trip. Being the more adventurous eater, that I am, I find the festival great for sampling all those foods that I normally don’t get at home. My husband being the not-so-adventurous eater that he is actually finds the Food and Wine Festival a great place to try some things that he may or may not like, but doesn’t have to dish out the expense of a full meal just to try a bite.

On select nights during September and October, the Magic Kingdom is transformed into a Halloween fun-fest during Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party. Filled with Trick or Treaters of all ages (yes grown ups can get dressed up too!), special shows, and the Happy Hallowishes fireworks, perhaps the highlight is the “Boo to You” parade. But don’t worry: it’s not so scary! Read more
